Data Skills for Work is looking for short data courses to add to our Website, Inkpath App, and Register of courses eligible for Data Skills Credits funding. This is a great opportunity to join excellent providers like CodeClan, IDM, The Data Kirk, Code Division, Jumping Rivers, Napier University, Sixth Sense, and others. Adding your courses to our database will increase the reach they have, as well as supporting us on our mission to upskill individuals and organisations to help close the digital skills gap and help make Scotland a data leader on the world stage.
